Isaiah 23:7-9

GOD’S WORD Translation

7 Is this your bustling city founded in the distant past?Is this the city that sent its people to settle in distant lands?8 Who planned such a thing against Tyre, the city that produced kings?Its merchants are princes.Its traders are among the honored people of the world.9 The Lord of Armies planned thisin order to dishonor all arrogant peopleand to humiliate all the honored people of the world.
